Rev. A. w. Shields.

On last Saturday evening o fine looking
colored man, an entire stranger in our
town mounted goods box in the streets
and announced the subject Of his discourse
to be upon Education and reformation, we
afterwards ascertained he was the Rev. A.
W. Shield OF Washington, D. u, he made
a most excellent speech in Which he gave
to his colored friends much valuable adj
vice.
He said that the civil rights bill was a
mere humbug, that he had been slave
and belonged to the meanest man IN the
world. that oil the negroes Were scared
nearly TO death when Cleveland was elected,
thinking they would be put back in slave.
~, that Cleveland stood between the Dem
ocrats and Republicans and was safe and
wise ruler; he said that the colored people
would work the lands Of the whites aud Of
ter running in debt so as to take their
crops, wcnld then 60 off and say that the
white man had robbed them; this he posi-.
lively denied and said il was the negroes
fault, GU account Of no education; he deni-
cd that the white man WAS the negroes enc
my but said the white man was more will.
ing to befriend the negro than they were
to help each other, he compared the me-
proes to the craw-fsh. in the basket that
when one craw-fsh would crawl nearly out
the basket another one would crawl up and
pull him back, lie was opposed to mixing
the races and social equity, and much
other good advice TO the colored people,
which il they vonld take. il would be bet
ter for the peace and qniet Of both races.
His speech upon the whole was very
good Que.
